A practical view on contemporary IAS 39 requirements combined with an outlook on the latest developments in IFRS 9

Since the financial crisis in 2009, no other topic has been emphasised more than “Impairment”. The general opinion regarding IAS 39-compliant risk provisioning is that it is “too little too late”. The upcoming IFRS 9 will cause a shift from the incurred but not reported losses to the expected loss model.

This webinar provides an overview of how a standardised software package, FlexFinance® IFRS, covers the entire process chain for collective and individual assessment under IAS 39 today. In addition, it provides an outlook of how IFRS 9 requirements will impact the handling of impairment in the future.

Topics covered:

  • IAS 39 Collective assessment: PD and LGD as input for risk provisioning
  • IAS 39 Individual impairment: The process chain, including impairment identification
  • IFRS 9 Three bucket models
  • Impact of IFRS 9 on the current solution

 

After listening to the webinar you will be able to understand:

  • How the IAS 39 impairment process can be supported by a turnkey IFRS solution
  • Which impact IFRS 9 Phase 2 will have on credit risk provisioning
  • How the new requirements will be incorporated into the current IAS 39 solution

 

Dieter will share the experience gained in international IAS/IFRS project implementation, combined with the latest status of IFRS 9 requirements.
